I'm installing a 24VDC fountain pump that I hope to run on a battery. However, I won't be able to charge the battery with a solar panel due to shade. I do have 120AC inside a utility room close by. Assuming the pump runs a few to 8 hours a day is there a safe way to automatically maintain the battery's charge? I don't want to manually hook up a trickle charger. Or should I just go with an AC/DC converter? The pump is an AEO model with Pmax of 21.5W at 24V. The battery is actually two 12V mightymax.
Thanks for your help.
